The quintessential Christmas or Easter ham has a bit of a different look in St. Mary’s County, Maryland. Deep in southern Maryland, corned ham gets stuffed with hearty vegetables and pungent spices before being boiled for hours, creating the aptly named regional delicacy: stuffed ham. Each cook in St. Mary’s County has their own Maryland stuffed ham recipe. Corned ham is the norm, but fresh or smoked hams are also welcome.

If you’ve never tried fried green tomatoes, you’re in for a treat! This classic southern dish starts with firm, unripe green tomatoes—the perfect thing to make when it’s still early tomato season and you’re itching to start harvesting from your backyard vegetable garden. Once sliced, the tomatoes are batter-coated and fried to perfection.

As someone who has lived in Wisconsin for most of my life, I love seeing fried cheese curds pop up on restaurant menus in other parts of the country; it makes my little cheesehead heart sing! That said, fried cheese curds made in the heart of America’s Dairyland will forever be the best, especially the ones made at the Wisconsin State Fair.

A butter burger, crinkle-cut fries and frozen custard from Culver’s is my comfort meal. (Nobody asked, but I think that makes me a true Wisconsinite.) I’ve loved the popular midwestern fast food chain ever since I was a kid, as we often made stops there on road trips and on busy weeknights when my mom didn’t have time to make a meal. I loved the buttery, lacy edges of the thin burger patty and the soft, buttery bun—enough to order a butter burger every time.

Cold, bright and lemony summer desserts are always refreshing enough to combat the syrupy heat of the season. Fortunately, this lemon pudding ticks off every box. Real lemon juice and lemon zest bring their sunshiny hue and tart taste to a creamy pudding that’s best served straight out of the fridge. Just before digging in, dress up each serving with a cloud of whipped cream, lemon slices and fresh mint.

Nobody can resist a mini muffin or two! Whether you’re looking for creative ways to feed your littles or are just a big kid at heart, mini muffin recipes are a fun addition to a breakfast spread, a lunch box, or an afternoon snack plate. Store-bought pouches of mini muffins are convenient, but there’s no beating the flavor and freshness of homemade. Baking them yourself means you’re in control of the ingredients—no preservatives, just wholesome goodness.

The fresh, sweet flavor of strawberry cream cheese frosting pairs beautifully with any number of cake flavors, from simple sheet cakes to show-stopping layered cakes. The ingredients are inexpensive and easy to keep on hand for whenever you want to make a special strawberry treat. We love cream cheese frosting because it lends a little extra decadence to any cake. It’s sweet, but less so than typical buttercreams.

If you’re searching for a perfect everyday flapjack that’s also good for you, look no further than this whole wheat pancake recipe. These whole wheat pancakes are made entirely with whole wheat flour, which contains more fiber, vitamins and minerals than all-purpose flour—a big deal if you’re trying to eat more nutrient-dense foods. Healthier whole wheat swaps often get a bad rap for being bland, but whole wheat pancakes are anything but boring.

Homemade pretzel buns just may be your ticket to throwing the summer’s best cookout. Where a regular hamburger bun is seen merely as a vessel for a patty and all the toppings, pretzel buns offer a fresh take and a flavorful experience. Here, a pretzel’s deep mahogany hue, signature chew and salty topping meet a hamburger bun’s rounded shape and squashy texture. Treat pretzel buns just as you would hamburger buns: Leave them soft and bouncy, or butter and toast them for extra flavor.

I’m not someone who abides by strict food rules. I love scooping chunky salsa with saltine crackers just as much as tortilla chips (it’s a great combination). And I believe the best way to top a graham cracker is with a thin smear of salted butter. So, when I saw the viral smash burger tacos recipe, I appreciated the slightly out-of-the-box construction that bridges taco night recipes and burger recipes and knew it would be a delicious mash-up.
